this isn't a replacement for a full size tripod, but it's the one i'm most likely to throw into my backpack and keep with me, so in that respect, it's a winner. from Amazon.com i was looking for something small and light for backpacking trips - and this is it! from Amazon.com i have not carried this into the field in order to comment on it's weight. from Amazon.com its small, fits easily in a backpack, super light, gets so low to the ground,very fluid ball head. from Amazon.com only issue is you can't keep the frame when shooting a portrait (turning the camera to shoot length-wise) because the weight of the camera itself causes significant slippage on the mount. from Amazon.com Although I've only used this tripod a few times, it sets up quickly and easily. The legs extended smoothly and the leg locks feel secure. from Amazon.com Great size, very compact. Only issue is you can't keep the frame when shooting a portrait (turning the camera to shoot length-wise) because the weight of the camera itself causes significant slippage on the mount. from Amazon.com I purchased this tripod for a family member and I was very impressed when I saw it. For about the same price as a flimsy collapsing tripod I saw at Bestbuy you can get this very solid sturdy one that goes from standing height to tabletop. from Amazon.com Its small, fits easily in a backpack, super light, gets SO low to the ground,very fluid ball head. The only downside is that its a threaded connection. from Amazon.com Its small, fits easily in a backpack, super light, gets SO low to the ground,very fluid ball head.
